The former Westerly Cinemas 4 are now a Pets Plus and a Blockbuster. The building, which was white as a cinema, has been repainted a horrific shade of pink. It was run by the Hoyts chain before it closed. Built in the 1970’s, it was previously run by Interstate Theatres. Hoyts closed it in winter 2000 after they opened the Stonington Cinemas nearby.

I remember seeing a most of my movies here as a kid! Including “Star Wars”(1977), “Superman: The Movie(1978), "Rocky III”(1982), “Indiana Jones & The Temple Of Doom”(1984), “The Goonies”(1985), “Back To The Future”(1985), the list goes on & on. It was a twin until the summer of 1984, when the first theater was split in two. Its a tragedy to hear what happened to this theater.

It was a Twin Cinema until July of 1984. The owners took screen 1 & split it in half making two smaller theaters (roughly 150 seating capacity per theater) then was reopened in late summer of ‘84. The Cinema then went under the name Westerly Cinemas 1, 2, & 3.
